We thoroughly recommend Sundowner as a travel company. Our trip to Madagascar in July 2026 was the second holiday that we have booked with them and, just like our first trip to Borneo, it didn't disappoint! Lucy listened carefully to our ideal scenarios for a holiday and tailored it perfectly. Everything during the holiday ran like clockwork, with the drivers, guides and all staff at the hotels showing the utmost professionalism and consideration. Overall, it was a wonderful holiday with lots of wildlife and stunning scenery. A huge thanks to all the staff at Sundowner for their professionalism!

We had a brilliant trip to South Africa, possibly one of the best family holidays we’ve done. Motswari Retreat was without doubt the highlight. The personal service was incredible, the food and accommodation were superb, and our guides were extremely knowledgeable, passionate and focused on conservation and animal welfare. We loved the mix of walking and driving safaris, which gave us a completely different perspective on the wildlife and environment. The whole trip was full of memorable experiences, from exploring Cape Town to the incredible safaris and unforgettable South African sunsets.

Thank you for arranging another fantastic trip — just like our holiday in Borneo, everything ran like clockwork. We were warmly welcomed from the moment we arrived (even at passport control, where we became affectionately known as Mama and Papa!), and every guide and transfer was exactly where they needed to be. We adopted an elephant at the rescue centre, explored Lake Naivasha by boat, walked the gorge at Hell’s Gate, and visited Hyrax Hill and Kariandusi — both fascinating if you're into archaeology. Our driver-guide Alan was exceptional: knowledgeable, calm under pressure, and a brilliant birdwatcher. In the Masai Mara, George and Moses tailored everything to suit us — including walks, game drives, sundowners, and even a late-night outing to see a bush baby. The whole experience felt incredibly personal. Finally, we flew to Diani Beach to relax — the food was amazing, the snorkelling peaceful, and the dhow trip a real highlight. Each lodge was welcoming, beautifully run, and full of thoughtful touches. It was a truly wonderful trip.

Thanks for arranging and organising one of the most memorable and fabulous family holidays we’ve ever experienced. Huge shout out to Lucy, who convinced us Sri Lanka would be amazing (it was!) and the Maldives made for the perfect relaxing end. I normally arrange our holidays myself, so this was a leap of faith based on a recommendation — and we wanted someone to help make it truly special, as we were celebrating a milestone birthday during our 15 days away. I’d have absolutely no hesitation recommending or using Sundowner Holidays again. The accommodation, tours, guides, and local touches all helped make it something really special — there’s no way we could’ve nailed it like this without their input. You obviously pay for the service, but it was a genuine investment in happiness. Thank you Sundowner team for making our holiday so special and memorable we look forward to using you guys again. In the meantime best wishes to you all as we/I interacted with every single one of you to make this trip so special. Thanks again folks, you are all very good at what you do.

Well we are home and a little sad our wonderful holiday is over. Our thanks go out to Jo & her knowledgeable team. Firstly over the last few years and because of Covid, Sundowner Holidays have been so helpful and nothing was too much trouble in making this holiday a reality. (Team Thanks as well) you have put together a fabulous personal itinerary for my family, and I would rate this as one of our all time favourites. It was everything the itinerary promised and much more. We have never met so many friendly people, the places we stayed at were superb, the guides were excellent & knowledgeable, and yes we did see the Big 5, plus the Sun Bear. That’s it, 5 ⭐️ for this Borneo Adventure.
